Property Description

Set on a tree-lined street in Havertown's Paddock Farms neighborhood, this four-bedroom, two-bath cape puts residents within walking distance of the YMCA, Brick and Brew, Crossbar, and neighborhood staples like Havertown Day. The classic cape silhouette anchors the corner, a familiar profile for the block and a nod to the neighborhood's 1960s roots. Built in 1961 and offered at 1,302 square feet, the home is being sold as-is and priced to reflect its condition: this is a fixer-upper and handyman special, best suited to a buyer ready to update room by room or an investor eyeing the numbers. Four bedrooms and two full baths give the floor plan real flexibility once the work is done, and the original layout offers a foundation rather than a finished product. The home's good bones and structural potential are the real draw here: solid framing from a single owner era paired with room to reimagine the kitchen, baths, and finishes to modern taste. Buyers should plan for updates throughout, as no recent renovations are represented. Positioned in one of Havertown's most walkable pockets and priced for its as-is condition, 2540 Prescott Rd represents a rare entry point into Paddock Park for a buyer willing to do the work.
